All my plastic mellow dreams Come crashing to a halt I wake up in a silent scream My wife has turned to salt The end result of everything Is dancing on my head The powers that preside Are pushing me to leave my bed Leave my bed Come in quick, take a chance Pull the strings, feel the heat Do the dance Come along, all is well Take a seat The hope alive that someday You and I will meet The thickest end devotion to the Time Zone of your vice Come mellow up the moonshine As you melt a block of ice Open all the ears around Your buddy's new demand The nest is empty now But now is the empty hand Come in quick, take a chance Pull the strings, feel the heat Do the dance Come along, all is well Take a seat The hope alive that someday You and I will meet Soon the world revolves into Another state of bliss Actresses and actors plant Another solemn kiss Go carefully beside her As you roll the picture show Slide projector lighting Builds the forces from below, from below Come in quick, take a chance Pull the strings feel the heat Do the dance Come along, all is well Take a seat The hope alive that someday You and I will meet
